Example straight from the docs;

VB.NET

Dim reader As SqlClient.SqlDataReader
Dim recordData As String = ""
Dim recordCount As Integer = 0
Dim i As Integer = 0
sqlConnection1.Open()
reader = sqlDataAdapter1.SelectCommand.ExecuteReader()
While reader.Read()
    For i = 0 To reader.FieldCount - 1
        recordData &= reader(i).ToString()
        recordData &= "-"
    Next
    recordData &= ControlChars.CrLf
    recordCount += 1
End While
sqlConnection1.Close()
MessageBox.Show("Records processed: " & recordCount)
MessageBox.Show("Data:" & ControlChars.CrLf & recordData)

However, i would use a bindingsource, and then bind the controls to that.

There is a good video on MSDN on Forms over Data, and there are a few others in the series that are worth watching.

You don't specify exactly what the problem is, so it's hard to say.

I do however notice that you're trying to read an integer value, and the name of your listview column ("Customer Name") suggests that the CustName field is a varchar/string.

In that case you should use reader.GetString(0) instead of reader.GetInt32(0)

Good luck,
